Default RE: redcat volcano upgrades

I HAVE A HIMOTO ELDORDA. IT IS JUST LIKE A REDCAT VOLCANO. I JUST PUT ALL ALUMINUM TIE RODS IN FRONT AND REAR.THE WHEELS ARE STRIGHT BUT WHEN I USE THE REMOTE CONTROLL TO TURN THE WHEELS IT WILL GO ALL THE WAY TO ONE SIDE BUT NOT THE OTHER AND WHEN I LET GO OF THE REMOTE THE WHEELS WILL NOT CENTER. HOW DO I ADJUST THE SERVO LINKAGE I KNOW I NEED TO ADJUST THE TIE RODS BUT I NEED THE WHEELS TO CENTER FIRST I THINK.
I can read without the caps a lot better.......................find a way to support your volcano of the ground while you center the steering.......first turn on your truck RX and then turn on your TX while the truck is off the ground...........next there is a dial on your TX (transmitter) probably a round knob........It will turn all the way to the left and then all the way to the right.........you want this knob right in the middle between full left and full right..........that will have centered your servo......Now that thats done look at your tires and see if there straight. If there not then unscrew the servo horn and pull it off (the arm on the servo) stand back and straighten your tires then very carefully reinstall your horn (servo arm) while the wheels remain straight........reinstall the screw and tighten and you have it..........setting your toe in and camber is something else.........you will have to drive your Volcano and use the knob to make the truck travel in a straight line that way when you let off the wheel it will straighten back up[&o]don't forget to turn everything off when your done[8D]

Doing wheelies your on your own

most all 1/10 bodies will fit the Volcano you just have to check real close as to what you buying[:-]
